4.3 Time

- -

In the context of Sly, time is not the seconds that are passing in the -real world, but the virtual clock that is ticking within the game -loop. This manual refers to a “tick” as the smallest unit of time. -There are a user-defined amount of ticks in a real world second, but -by default it is 60. -

-

Sly includes several useful modules for working with time. Coroutines -are procedures that can be paused and resumed, agendas are procedure -schedulers, and signals built atop both agendas and coroutines to -provide a high-level functional reactive programming API. -

-

For most use-cases, the signal module should be used exclusively, but -the agenda and coroutine modules are useful for building new -high-level abstractions. -

- - - - -
• Signals:  Functional reactive programming. -
• Coroutines:  Cooperative multi-tasking. -
• Agendas:  Deferred procedure scheduling. -
